It seems like almost every week there is a food recall or alert that calls attention to the food safety issues facing our country. Over the past few months, we’ve discussed several food safety reports on this blog, including Deloitte LLP’s 2010 Consumer Food Safety Survey and a report by former Food and Drug Administration (FDA) economist Robert L. Scharff that discussed the cost of foodborne illness to the United States. Now a new report is out that makes a number of food safety recommendations for the FDA.

It has been more than two months since the BP oil spill, and it would be hard to find anyone for whom the spill and its ugly aftermath has not given rise to some thought about crisis management, from both a personal and a business perspective. Amid all the analysis and criticism surrounding the spill, two primary elements continue to drive the discussion: crisis and the environment. Both are fundamental – whether recovering from an oil spill or managing a product recall.

There is no doubt that managing a recall – no matter what the industry – can be a costly and time-consuming process, especially considering the external recall logistics and communications expertise required. With increasingly stringent recall regulations making it next to impossible to handle a recall internally, recall insurance options can help protect manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers, and distributors from the financial and reputational damage that often results from a recall.

We’ve discussed on this blog before the importance of qualifying your product ingredients in order to ensure that they are safe. But occasionally manufacturers still find themselves facing a recall because of a defective ingredient obtained from a supplier. For example, recent recalls of contaminated black pepper, HVP, and even peanuts eventually led to massive recalls of consumer products that contained these ingredients.
